Copy Contents Of Multiple Comment Boxes And Paste In Single Comment Box
Mar 13, 2014how to copy the contents of multiple comment boxes and paste in a single comment box.
The big picture is that I have a number of cells with numerical values in and text in comment boxes. I want to be able to click a button to copy the contents of the comment boxes and paste them, along with the numerical value from the cell, into a single comment box, ordered by highest to lowest value within the comment box, then delete the original cells and comments.
I am quite new to VBA but have been coping quite well so far with information of the web and analysing recorded macros.
Adding Comment Boxes
Dec 19, 2006I am trying to write a VBA macro that will go from one sheet and copy a cell's text, then go back to the main sheet and insert this text into a "comment-box" type of thing.
The box I'm talking about is where you move the mouse over a cell and a box pops up with the comment in it.
Moving Comment Boxes
May 26, 2006Is there an easy way to move a comment box? I have a comment box on a specific cell (hidden until mouse is hovering over it). Each day when new data is filled in, I need to move the comment down to the next cell. Right now, I click on edit comment, copy the comment, then click insert comment in the other cell, paste comment....then delete the old comment. Is there a way to just move the comment down to the next cell?
View 5 Replies View RelatedComment Boxes Were Automatically Re-sized
Jul 16, 2008 I have a document with about 300 comment boxes, and I needed to enlarge each one to make the information visibly fit in the region. I did this, and was happy.
Then I opened the file on another computer, added a few rows, saved the file, and re-opened it on this one, and all the comment boxes in the original rows (the 300 i had, not the 15 I added later) had been reduced in size and not all the text is visible. Why did this happen? Is there an easy way to re-size all the boxes without doing them one at a time?
Combining Text From Comment Boxes

May 22, 2006I am being asked to create a workbook where 80% of it is protected. And user input is restricted to specific columns and rows.
However the user wants column R unprotected so that Comment boxes can be used, but when I protect the workbooksheet the Insert option is not available when you right click.
Print Track Changes Comment Boxes
Aug 16, 2007Is it possible to print a workbook and have the "track changes on screen" show on the hard copy? I'm using Excel's track changes option to monitor changes to a workbook. I've selected the box "Highlight Changes on Screen". I would like the box containing the change (which pops up when you hover your mouse over the cell) to print out with the workbook so users can see what was changed when reviewing the hard copy. This is preferable to using the "List changes on a new sheet" option since it would require flipping between multiple pages.

Multiple Combo Boxes ..
Sep 18, 2009I have a manualy constructed user form which has 3 data validation lists.
Sources:
B7 = List 1
B12:B15 = List 2
B17:B20 and C17:C20 = List 3
These operate fine but I wish to replace the dropdown validation boxes and replace them with Combo boxes so that users are able to view the complete lists and also offer the option of inputting an item not included in the validation list if required.
I have tried many variations of input but my knowledge base is inadequate!
Mainly I end up with the combo box working on one cell only!
Can tell:
1. Do I have to raise 1 combo box per cell?
2. What vba code is necessary to make them all work?
Multiple Combo Boxes
Sep 9, 2009I did away with the merged cells, and now I have a combo box in every cell that I want it in.
My problem is, I would like to format each combo box seperately. Every cell that has a combo box in it has data vakidation activated. I copy and pasted code to get it to work. It works great, but I would still like to change the combo box size and tab and enter functions for each individual one. I created more than one combo box but I kept getting an error on them. Any help or knowledge would be greatly appreciated.
I am posting just the code that I copy and pasted.

Inserting Multiple Check Boxes
Feb 22, 2010Is there a way to a mass insert of Check Boxes without the cell link all being the same cell? I have a huge list of items that I want to put a check box next to each one. This way when my warehouse people check it off in the sheet one of the columns will read "Available".
Problem is when I put the first box in and cell link it to E4, and then copy and paste it, all the boxes toggle based on one another. Otherwise I have to put in 584 check boxes. Solutions or other recommendations are gladly welcome.
Also, is "True/False" the only available "response" when using Check boxes? (I Know I can write an equation based on the true false, but I am just curious)

View 2 Replies View RelatedMultiple Conditional (Dynamic) Dropdown Boxes
Jun 5, 2014I'm trying to incorporate multiple conditional (Dynamic?) drop down boxes to enable me to get an appropriate code at the end of the process. This will be used to product data entry and the code will tell Amazon where to post the product. I have many thousands of codes that i need to access and the easiest and most accurate way is to break down everything in to category and sub categories until I eventually get the code I want for that specific product.
for Example:
1730708031Clothing/Baby/Baby Girls 0-24m/Hoodies & Tracksuits/Tracksuit Bottoms
To return this code I would want to select Clothing, which returns a list which includes baby which in turn will give me a list that includes baby girls and so on and so on until I can select Tracksuit bottoms that will return the code.
Each list is dependent on the previous choice
As I have thousand and thousand of potential codes creating range list for each potential category and sub categories is not really feasible and would be very difficult to maintain when changes occur.
With this in mind I have created a code list that breaks the above example so that each category is now in it's own cell and there can be upto 8 (as I've seen so far) potential conditional categories before you return the code and ideally I would like to use this as it very easy to create and update. (see attached)
I might be able to use filters to return the appropriate list each time but don't know where to begin.

View 2 Replies View RelatedCreating Multiple Check Boxes Macro
Nov 4, 2009I would like to be able to create multiple check boxes that will accomplish 2 things.
1. When Checked will display a date in the cell one column to the right.
2. When checked will change colors
Secondly, since i will need to make several hundred of these I would like a macro that will allow me to define how the check box is to behave and then have a macro which will allow me to define all of the settings and then input the number of check boxes that I want and it will create that many boxes.
I recall seeing a macro on here some time ago (at least 1 month prior but no more than 6 months prior) which allowed you to type into a form how many check boxes or option boxes you wanted to create in your workbook, and then it would create that many.
Verifying Multiple Text Boxes Are Not Empty
Nov 13, 2009I have many text boxes on a form and if any of them are empty then I want a msgbox to popup and exit sub. I know how to do the following

if txt...3
Is there anyway to group the text boxes to test for empty so you don't have to list 20 textboxes
Selecting/changing Multiple Dropdown Boxes At Once
Feb 20, 2008I'm working with Excel 2002 on Windows XP.
I want to select more than one drop down box at the same time, and copy them as well as rename the cells they refer to.
For example: in A1 there will be a box with LinkedCell set to A1 and ListFillRange set to B1:B5. I now want a similar box in A2, with A2 as LinkedCell. However, when I copy past the box in A1, it still refers to A1 and B1:B5 (the last part is ok). I can easily change A1 to A2 by just changing it in the properties, but the thing is that I also need these boxes in A3:A100. Is there any faster way of changing this?
Also, the ListFillRange might expand in the future. Therefor I would like to know if its possible to select the boxes in A1:A100 and change the ListFillRange to B1:B6 for all at once.
Controlling Multiple Text Boxes On A Form
Feb 18, 2009I have a userform with 40 text boxes in it. I have learnt how to restrict people entering anything other than numbers into a text box using the following code on the keypress property of the textbox:
Const Number$ = "0123456789." ' only allow these characters
If KeyAscii 8 Then
If InStr(Number$, Chr(KeyAscii)) = 0 Then
KeyAscii = 0
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Rather than have 40 of these blocks of code (one for each text box), is it possible to somehow group them so that a block of code is applicable to all of them?
For the sake of arguement, the textboxes are called data1 up to data40
Hiding Columns With Multiple List Boxes
Oct 1, 2006I have a user form with 4 list boxes that I'd each like to populate with their own lists of cities according to time zone - one list box for each time zone (ET, CT, MT and PT).
I attached a worksheet that has some code from another project I got from another thread on this forum, but it needs to be modified (or whole new code written) for this application, including initializing the control buttons.
The code I'm borrowing has a slight glitch in it, where if you select the last item in the list box to hide, that item will be missing from the list the next time the user form is opened, and you'll then have to manually unhide that column.

Dependant Data Validation From Multiple Dropdown Boxes
May 3, 2007I am trying to make a drop down list and based on what I select from the drop down needs to populate a different drop down list with information based on what I select.
For example: if I have Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3 and Sheet4.
Inside of Sheet4 (My Main Sheet) I have a Data Validation (Drop Down list) in Cell A5 and Cell B5
I would like to choose Sheet1 from Cell A5 and in that same sheet (Sheet4) in Cell B5 I want to have a drop down with a list of names that are located in Sheet1 in Column A:A.
Or If I would've picked Sheet2 in Cell A5 of (Sheet4), I would like to see a drop down with a list of names in Cell B5 (Sheet4) that are on Sheet2 in Column A:A . Is this possible?
So far I could achive it if information I want is located on the same Sheet. But I need it to work if info is located on different Sheets
Multiple Questionnaire Check Boxes Limited To X Responses
Jun 1, 2008As part of an audit program I have a questionnaire. One of the questions has 10 check boxes, one with a combo box and one with a text box. The user will check at least 2 or more answers, but not all 10. (2-4 average). I don’t want to link the answers to specific cells, because I don’t want the answers to display with blank rows between answer on the sheet. I want the answers to display in 2 columns evenly distributed.
I would prefer, to not have to run a macro, if possible, but the only way I could see to do this is a very long if statement base on every combination of answers. If the only way to do this is thru a macro, I would prefer to tie it to the printing of the sheet, or I could make it part of an error checking macro I plan to do. The actual question is in the attached file
